A Sanctuary and Rescue

Pets With Disabilities is both a bridge to a better life AND a forever home. If a forever home can’t be found, PWD becomes an animal's safe haven and family. We need your constant support to make this happen. Help by donating today.

Celebrating over 20 years of
Rescuing Animals with Disabilities

Because their spirits aren't broken.

Welcome to Pets with Disabilities, a nonprofit organization dedicated to dogs and cats with physical disabilities. The organization provides humane sheltering and specialized vetting for those pets in need. We also provide invaluable support, resources and education for families who’s pet has become disabled or those who are thinking about adding a pet with a disability to their family.


PWD’s ‘Grand Slam’ Matching Donation Event

You Only Live Once, But You Get to Serve Twice!!

A very kind supporter of PWD has generously agreed to match ALL donations to up to $20,000.

A personal note from the family of Ms. Mary Stevens:

"My mother had a stroke when I was in my teens and was partially paralyzed. She loved our Samoyeds and asked about how she could help animals in some way. I immediately thought that Mom and Pets with Disabilities would be a perfect match. She knew what it was like to be physically challenged, and she approached her physical challenges without complaint, just like all the dogs at PWD do every day.

She was so happy being a supporter of this great organization. She had a framed picture of Ernie on her wall and loved hearing about the other dogs that were part of the PWD family. Pets With Disabilities does an amazing job and hopefully Mom’s gift will help them raise much needed funds for the dogs now and in the future."

For this year’s PWD fundraiser, in Mary Stevens honor, the family is making a matching gift donation up to $20,000, so that every dollar that is given will be doubled.

Jules Matching Challenge!
Only 3 balls to go!

Jules, our Tennis Ace, will help us track donations.
For every $1000 in donations received, she will get another ball in the yard.
Our goal is 20 balls by October 15th!

Every dollar donated will be DOUBLED!!
$10 becomes $20
$50 becomes $100
$100 becomes $200
No donation is too small - every dollar will count!!

“Love” may mean "0 points" in tennis, but it means everything here at PWD. 
Please help us show all the animals at the rescue a little “LOVE”.
Thank you for your support.
